Female Armors

Crystal Lion wrote:It fits Safiria, obviously. I'm talking the female hero player. Usually, in other AE games, it's not implied that the player is a Helen of Troy, hence the fewer revealing clothes she has to wear. Suddenly, in AQW, she must wear leotards and slitted skirts almost all the time, while the game still doesn't fix her in the role as a seductress, but that of a fighter/mage/whatever class she is. The player doesn't have any actual option to pick a love interest in the game, that sort of situation is only created through fanfiction of said AE games.

You did not specifically state that. [quote="Crystal Lion"]I was comparing AQW to other games that have revealing clothes for hardly any rhyme or reason. After all, is there any story in AQW to explain the abrupt change in the policy of compulsory revealing clothes?[quote]

You asked about the story in general, or at least made it out as if you did. I simply proved that there IS story in AQW that suggests clothing of the sort. In the said cutscene, by the way, the character does admit that she is beautiful, he (no gender choice), simply says he is not so gullible. I have yet to see a slitted skirt, by the way. Fishnets and leotards were popular around this time as well, its just they didn't have the same meaning as they are seen as today. The game has, to a very tiny extent, some historical accuracy. Being that I've studied a period similar to this one for many years in my schooling, I can safely say that this game hasn't violated anything too bad. Yes, AQW does have futuristic stuff as well, as its basically a mesh of AQ, DF, and MQ. That aside, the outfits portray a level of realism, and there are a lot that are not this way, more so then not, I'd say.

Evangel wrote:Safiria is an exception... well, not really. She's based off a Staff Member, who probably chose her NPC to look the way she does. Even so, if you compare AQ's version to AQW's version, even MechQuest's version, AQW is still the most revealing. (Might I also add AQW's ver took away the original's silver wings?)

Now, the topic is the female AQW players, not others.

How is the AQW version of this any more revealing? They even added a necklace to cover the cleavage further. Safiria is the most revealing in AQ, as it has the most realistic looking graphics. AQW doesn't even go for realism on any of its graphics.

First you said Safiria seduced everyone except the hero (player) in AQ, then you mentioned she does that in AQW? Might want to check that typo.

I said slitted skirts exist in AQW, yes. Look at the magician/healer classes and their subscriber upgrades, NOT the armors that cover classes. The skirt is merely two parts of cloth, instead of a full pattern as usually found in skirts.
